[Stellar Parallax: Prelude (First Contact)]

You’ve definitely got a mastery of the comics medium! Love the design as well!

pluckyshroom responds:

thank you! comics have always been my thing, but the commission market leans way heavier into illustration ^^; it feels really good to get back into my element

[The Collector]

Wow! The design and posing are amazing! You should totally post this in the Horror Artist Thread in the Art Forum, I bet you’ll get more followers from that!

Nodoph responds:

Took me a while to figure out how to even do that, but I got it done.

[Character design]

I love the concept and the dreamy feel of the brushes used! If you ever need more characters to flesh out your worlds, or just help brainstorming, DM me any time!

M-A-F responds:

Thank you very much, I have a back story for 3 characters from this same old world and a bit of the story in my head but I'll probably forget about it bit by bit someday ^^; you can keep reading if you want about some character background story:

The third character is in my old moe animu style and it doesn’t fit the same style as the others but she is a child of a God and Goddess who goes down to live on Earth. Earth interests her so much she took on the colours of nature so she let her skin tan when she brushed past a tree, her hair became green and her dress and eyes changed to the colours of flowers such as lavender and lilac when she walked through them. It made her so happy she stayed on the world longer than expected. Meanwhile the Gods and Godesses looked disinterested and shared their opinions. “She’ll get bored and come back eventually.”
Her name is Lila, short for Lilac, her favourite flower she named herself after. Her Godess name is Camilya. (I just made that up lol...) This world’s story is set in a victorian-esque era and my vision for it is kinda short so I never went deep into it.

Heh...but I imagine the style and feel of it to be like a mild Miyazaki film rather than a edgy, action/horror.

[With eyes full of sorrow]

I love the style here, it’s pretty cool! The exaggerated features make it feel kinda more artsy, like sort of a folk art feel if that makes any sense?

Edit: Okay, agreed, that wasn’t the right description. I still don’t know what to call it lmao

M-A-F responds:

The style/features are based off a ball jointed doll I painted, she had larger eyes and lips. I kind of painted her like that doll. Her original design had slightly smaller eyes and lips and was more anime style than semi.
I’m not sure about the folk art thing but tyvm, glad you liked it!!

[Plum!]

I love all the little details! The really geometric design feels kinda retro and classic, I like it! Works well with the stylistic choices you made for the character!

Bleak-Creep responds:

Thanks! I really liked the shape of her cloak thing so I wanted to mimic it elsewhere too :)

[Stepford Birthday RKGK]

Looks amazing! I love the composition! And oh my god, is it Stepford’s birthday?

ToppleNG responds:

It was!

[Statera Detonation]

Oh, you’re this close to being scouting material! Just one more artwork! I love your comic book style and the chromatic aberration!

LividJestics responds:

Thank you so much, that's so sweet! <33

[Who cares]

Love the painterly style and the kinda cute imagery of the skeletons brushing her hair for her!

If you like drawing dark/horror themes, you should totally come to the horror artist thread that’s been running recently in the Art Forum! I know I’ve found a few people to follow from there!

M-A-F responds:

Thank you! I’ll check it out soon! :D

[El Gato]

I love the shading and the line work, it all looks so good!

Question: So if you’re a juicy ghost, does that mean I can summon you if I say your name three times?

Juicyghost responds:

It means you should give me your wallet.

[A free-use alien font]

The designs of these are pretty cool! I could easily see the curved shapes still being recognizable when drawn as geometric shapes (with the stone carving tools). I just think the letters align with the Latin alphabet a little too much to be properly alien at times, but that can just be fixed by swapping some of them.

Have you considered turning this into a usable font file?

sincronikon responds:

I did consider making it TTF, and then promptly forgot, lol. For this one, having them align with Latin was part of the plan, to leave it half-way guessable. I've also got an earlier set of ideas that's far more "alien", with less restrictions on shapes. I'll see if I can get around to doing them both up as actual fonts this week. Thanks for the nudge ;)
